Weekend Wrapup!

I'll start off with the failure of the weekend.  This cheesecake:

To be fair, though, the failure wasn't really mine.  Mr. Spaghetti's birthday was last week, and he asked me to make him a cheesecake for Sunday.  So, I stayed up late making said cheesecake Saturday night, thinking it would sit in the fridge overnight and be perfect the next afternoon.  After we got into bed Saturday night, I remembered I'd left the cheesecake sitting on the counter.

"Will you go put the cheesecake away for me?" I asked my husband. "Put it in a paper bag instead of wrapping it in plastic so that the water doesn't condense on top of it."

The next morning, I go into my kitchen, and what do I see?  A paper bag sitting on the counter.  Inside?  A cheesecake.

"Has this cheesecake been out all night?!?"  I asked.

"Yeah.  You told me to put it in a paper bag, so I did."

Apparently, I needed to be more specific: that I wanted the cheesecake in the bag, and the bag in the fridge.  Silly me, I thought everyone knew that cheesecake had to be refrigerated!

Anyway, the picture above was the result after I scooped the warm cheesecake out of the pan.  I made a new one, though.  Good wife that I am. 

Now for the better parts of the weekend:

We found this little Yorkie wandering our neighborhood.  I opened the door of the car to see if she had a tag with an address, and she hopped right in and sat on my lap.  Luckily, she did have a tag and was returned home after just a few hours.  Little Spaghetti was intrigued by her while she was with us though.  Our own Noodle Dog (the black, dejected-looking one  in the back) was not *entirely* thrilled, but I think she enjoyed the company, too.

Little Spaghetti also learned two new tricks this weekend.  He learned how to turn on the faucet.  And I think he enjoyed sitting in the sink and getting sopping wet as a result.

He also got brave and let Noodle Dog eat out of his hand.

We finished off the weekend with a super stylish hairdo...

...and ended up with a thoroughly exhausted baby!  All in all, a pretty good weekend.

How about you?  How was your weekend?
